Description
The MXR M299 Carbon Copy Mini takes the beloved analog delay circuit that built a reputation on pedalboards everywhere and packs it into a footprint that won’t eat up valuable real estate. Under the hood, it’s the same bucket-brigade signal path that made the original Carbon Copy a staple: true analog repeats with up to 600ms of delay time and lush, organic modulation that thickens each echo without ever sounding artificial.
What sets this mini version apart is its added flexibility. MXR built in a switch that lets you toggle between two distinct voicings pulled from two respected Carbon Copy circuits. Leave it in the default position and you get the dark, chewy, slightly rolled-off repeats that fans of the original know well — ideal for washing out behind a lead line or adding depth to ambient textures. Flip the Bright switch, modeled after the Carbon Copy Bright, and the repeats open up with more top-end sparkle and clarity, cutting through a busy mix or complementing brighter guitar tones.
On a pedalboard, this compact analog delay slots in naturally after your drive and modulation pedals, feeding a clean, expressive echo into your amp without hogging space. Whether you’re chasing dubby, degraded repeats or something a bit more defined and present, the M299 gives you two proven tonal characters in one small enclosure.
- BBD-based analog signal path for warm, natural-sounding repeats
- Up to 600ms of lush, modulated delay time
- Switchable voicing: default dark/chewy tone or Bright mode for added sparkle and definition
